OpenCloudware is a PaaS management stack that aims to enable flexible multi-cloud applications through an automated deployment chain across multiple cloud providers. It masks heterogeneity between cloud providers and automates application deployment regardless of technology or environment. The presentation demonstrates OpenCloudware's automatic deployment and benchmarking of an application across different IaaS providers.

1. OpenCloudware
Towards a PaaS management stack over multiple clouds

Summary
The main way to “go cloud” has proved to be, for security and economic reasons,
hybrid: mixing private with public.
Moving to Cloud PaaS then requires to manage the lifecycle of applications over
different cloud providers: mask the heterogeneity; automate the deployment whatever
the application technology and execution environment, etc.
This is what tackles OpenCloudware, which aims at enabling flexible multi-cloud
applications thanks to a full automated think-build-run chain.
In the presentation we highlight a sample from OpenCloudware results demonstrating
the automatic deployment and benchmarking of an application.

For security and economic reasons private clouds
shall be hybridized with public clouds
One key challenge is to manage the lifecycle of
applications over different cloud providers:
●
●
How to mask the heterogeneity?
How to automate the deployment whatever the application
technology and execution environment?
